The only source not mentioned at the AFD seems to be Net Games. Google books doesn't provide a preview; how much coverage is there? — Korath ( Talk) 19:15, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
MUME IV Multi-Users in Middle Earth, or MUME, simulates Tolkien's world of Middle Earth. Sauron's a mobile. The orcs and trolls support each other, and the "whities"—elves, dwarves, humans, and hobbits—are forced to defend their town from daily orc attacks, commonly referred to as "orc and whitie wars."
Role-playing is encouraged, but this is primarily an adventure and combat MUD. You need to acquire a set amount of travel points (leave the town and explore other areas) and experience points (kill mobiles or players) to advance, and that's exactly what most players are intensely focused on.
There are more than 25 levels in the game. Advice: If you're new to the MUD, don't play an orc. Most orcs are experienced players, and since orcs and trolls are on a different chat channel from the other players, you'll be cut off from communication with other newbies. ✓INTERNET→telnet 128.178.77.5 4242→ <your character's name>→<y or n>→<your password>→<your password>→<f or m>→<your race>→<your class>→<your alignment>

I'm just listing possible sources. I'm not sure which ones are appropriate. Kallimina ( talk) 15:49, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Is Mudconnector a viable source? They won Mudconnector's Mud of the Month in '98. I remember Mudconnector being discounted during the Threshold AfD, but I'm not sure if it was actually ever decided if it could be used in notability arguments or not.
